"Father, what do you mean, you didn't think about destroying Myanmar?"

Zhu Guoxiong put down the small coffee cup in his hand and looked at his father in surprise. [Zhu Jishi has now started to train Zhu Guoxiong to be the successor - different from Luo Xiangmei's idea. Zhu Jishi thinks that being an emperor does not need to be trained since childhood. .What do young children know? No matter how talented they are, they are just a little kid. How can they learn how to govern the country? Moreover, the way to govern the country is different from people and from time to time. There is no way to teach with the same imperial skills. Instead of locking the crown prince in the palace and being educated by Luo Zenan, Weng Tong and other bureaucrats, it would be better to let him receive education from new schools like other noble teenagers in the Ming Dynasty, and at least establish a social circle. When the crown prince grows up, he will grow up. , and then carry out some necessary training based on his personality and the situation at that time. For example, now, Zhu Guoxiong is 19 years old, and it is time to start to really get in touch with the government. So every day on the rest day, as long as Zhu Jishi has time, he will put it The crown prince called him to drink coffee with him while discussing some national affairs, and also taught him some principles of becoming an emperor.

Hearing the prince's question, Emperor Zhu shook his head with a smile and said, "I do have the idea of ​​including Myanmar into the Greater China system, but this does not mean the destruction of Myanmar. Because Myanmar is still different from Annan, Annan is right in our mouths. Around the side, the entire country's coastline is long and is facing the South China Sea, and the South China Sea is completely controlled by us. Moreover, Siam, to the west of Annan, is already a vassal state of our Ming Dynasty, and to the north, it is our Jiaozhou Province, and to Jiaozhou has railways, Nanning and Guangzhou. Connected. Such a country is already a turtle in the jar, and it also has fertile land, so it is natural that they should destroy them and collect all their lands.

But Myanmar is sandwiched between us and the British colonies. It is a buffer zone that no one wants to move lightly. I have repeatedly refused to let King Mindong belong to him. I just don't want to be used as a gun to deal with Britain. Unfortunately, he is smart but not very wise. He has not seen through this level and still thinks about using foreign power to improve himself. As a result, he was bullied by Fatty Qiu, thinking that he could use the power of the British to settle northern Myanmar and resist our Ming Dynasty. The fate of the country's demise is already doomed."

Speaking of this, Zhu Jishi sighed: "Guoxiong, you must remember the lessons of King Mindong. Whether it is for a person or a country, you must put your position in the right position. If you want to put your position in the right position, you must first recognize it. The general trend of the Qing Dynasty. After recognizing the general trend, you must follow the trend, so that you can achieve a career.”

Zhu Guoxiong nodded slightly, as if he had heard some of his father's meaning. He pondered: "Father, is the general trend in the world now the Ming Dynasty, the three strong men in Britain and France competing for hegemony?"

Zhu Jishi nodded with satisfaction and looked at his son: "Well, it's a three-strong man who competes for the hegemony, not a two-strong man who competes for the hegemony! This is why I refuse to take action easily! If we dare to break with Britain now, the hegemony of the British Empire will certainly not be the case. Bao, but it is difficult for us to laugh until the end of the Ming Dynasty. Fatty Qiu saw this and dared to keep making small moves."

"What the Father means...will dominate the world in the future?"

Zhu Jishi nodded. "Of course he is dominant. Could it be that he can still make two points in the Ming Dynasty? If he has two points in the world, I would rather maintain the current situation of three points. This will prevent Napoleon III from gathering the entire white world to become enemies of the Ming Dynasty. ”

"So that's it." Zhu Guoxiong looked like he suddenly realized. It turned out that the three strong men were just talking casually. He had always thought that France was the hardcore of the Ming Dynasty, and that the Ming Dynasty wanted France to share the earth. "Father, then we

Just let Mr. Churchill continue to make a fuss in the south?" He paused, "Do we want to support the Indians against Britain?"

Zhu Jishi hurriedly waved his hand, "You can't do this, you can't move India at all if you don't have the opportunity."

“Why?”

"Because India is the crown of the British Empire, if we take it away, the British Empire will collapse. At that time, Napoleon III will win without a fight, and the entire white civilization is respected by France. How can the Ming Dynasty defeat them?"

The crown prince shook his head: "This one doesn't work, that one doesn't work. This Romance of the Three Kingdoms is really hard to grasp."

Zhu Jishi smiled and said, "That's it. World hegemony is not easy to get, but we still have a great chance of winning. Guoxiong, do you know why?"

"My Ming Dynasty has a large population and a large land and a vast country. As long as we make good use of the land, make full use of the land, make full use of the things, and make full use of the people, we will be able to live in the world."

This is a cliché, and the Crown Prince opened his mouth. Zhu Jishi smiled and nodded, saying, "This is a cliché, and it is also the truth. We have occupied a large territory now. Eurasia has almost won half of it, and it is still in the north.

The Americas occupy two large pieces of land and are still a new Japan in the South American Circle. So much territory is enough for us to consume for decades... Our top priority now is not to break with the UK, but to consolidate the internal and develop the

With the current territory, within 20 years, our Ming Dynasty's national strength can surpass Britain and France. In this way, we can have the confidence to compete for hegemony."

"Father, can we just take this breath?" Crown Prince Zhu Guoxiong looked at his father with a suspicious expression. Who is Emperor Zhu? A genius of generations! How can people bully you casually? You must know

, There was no protest in the diplomatic words of the Ming Empire, because the Ming Empire never protested, and the Ming Empire expressed dissatisfaction through actions.

Zhu Jishi smiled coldly, "Of course it's impossible! My Ming Empire is one of the three great powers, how can the British be humiliated casually?" He looked at his son, "Guoxiong, I'll test you, I'll be there

Where to fight back against the British?”

This question is a bit difficult to answer. Zhu Guoxiong has made a plan in his mind. India is impossible, Myanmar... it seems that he will not directly attack with force. As for attracting the chieftains in northern Myanmar, he has been doing it for a long time.

The northern Myanmar ignores the court of the Kingdom of Myanmar and reports everything to the Yunnan Provincial Governor's Office. Many chieftains have even become vassals of the Ming Dynasty. It is estimated that the old man will definitely use them to find trouble for King Mindong, but

This is not a counterattack against the UK.

It is probably impossible to attack Singapore Fortress. If you want to fight, you will be a complete break. So where can you give the British some hardship?

Seeing Zhu Guoxiong looking puzzled, Emperor Zhu stopped silly and smiled and said, "I will go to the Pacific Ocean to find this place."

"King of Hawaii?" Zhu Guoxiong's eyes widened.

"Not Hawaii." Zhu Jishi still waved his hand, "It's Guam, Saipan, Halseyn Island (Wick Island), Midway, Truke Islands and Palau Islands."

"Father...what are these?" Zhu Guoxiong shook his head and said that he had never heard of these islands.

Zhu Jishi said coldly: "These are strategic areas in the Pacific! Guam and Saipan are the territory of Spain, and I decided to pay for it. Now Spain is preparing to send troops to attack Haiti and Dominican, but it will not cost you.

It should be no problem for Napoleon III to come forward and say that there should be no problem. Halseyn, Midway, Truke Islands and Palau Islands are all unparalleled lands, and I want to turn them all into territories of the Ming Empire

." He took a breath, looked at his son and smiled, "Son, don't underestimate these deserted islands. When we build a naval base and station an army, the value there will be great. At that time, the British

Even if I exchange the entire Myanmar, I will not agree.”

These islands have never even heard of the names, and I think they are not big islands, they can match Myanmar? Zhu Guoxiong thought in his heart that it must be the old man who was slapped in the face by the British, and there is no place to get his face back.

, So just look for a few desert islands in the Pacific Ocean to show your presence?

"The father is wise, and my son admires him." Prince Zhu respectfully flattered me.

Zhu Jishiyi waved his hand, "Guoxiong, you don't have to do this with me. You can't know the value of these islands now, but when we really fight with the British in the future, you will know how sad these islands will make the British.

"After this, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he looked at his son with his beard and said, "Son, you are 19 years old, you are not young anymore. If you are in the homes of ordinary people, you have already become a father.

But your marriage needs to be cautious... Uh, but taking a concubine is no big deal. Your aunt Akiko gave me a few more Japanese girls, all of whom are fourteen or fifteen years old, why don't you choose one
